Draw Somthing scam targetting Twitter users

Draw Something is a popular game which was launched in the early of last month for iPhone and Android smartphones. Since it was launched, the game has seen hundreds of millions of downloads.

As the game is seeing a good growth, scammers are also trying to make some bucks with the name of this game by leaping on the bandwagon. NakedSecurity has reported a fake Twitter account which is spamming users telling them that they have won a prize. This account is targeting all users who have mentioned Draw Something in their tweets.

This fake twitter account claims it is giving away 5000 prizes to “lucky” Draw Something fans, and that players can claim their award by visiting a newly created website called drawsomethingwinner.com.

If you visit the site you are asked a few simple questions, before being told that you are eligible to receive an award. When someone tries to claim, it takes the user to a survey website and makes some bucks for the scammer.
